Why we selected this yacht
We selected this yacht for guests planning independent cruising from Fethiye and looking for a catamaran with generous living space. Its 2024 model year, 4-cabin layout, and air conditioning offer clear advantages for groups who want a newer yacht and more comfort, especially in warmer periods.
Ideal for
It is suitable for families, groups of friends, and guests with valid sailing qualifications who want to plan their own route around Fethiye. It is also a sensible option for groups of several couples staying onboard or for guests who prioritize cabin layout.
Not ideal for
It is not suitable for guests without the required license and experience for bareboat cruising. It may also not be the right choice for groups who need a fully crewed arrangement, want a fixed maximum guest count stated in advance, or expect every operational detail to be confirmed before booking.
The experience
Departing from Fethiye, the day moves at your own pace as you cruise between bays. The spacious deck makes it easier to move around during stops, while air conditioning supports a more comfortable and organized stay inside in the evening. Since you shape the route, swim breaks and overnight planning are entirely up to you.
